Apart from being more environmentally friendly than most other modes of transport, there are also lots of other benefits of travelling by train. For one, it’s often quicker than travelling by bus or by car. What’s more, it frees up more time for you to spend doing useful things.

For instance, on a typical 40 minute commuter journey, you could take a nap, or make yourself a little extra buck by posting a couple of items for sale online. You could get ahead with your work by catching up on emails, or even meditate and listen to some relaxing music in order to arrive at your destination fully fresh and ready to take on the day.
